    This podcast is best in video form! You can watch this one and 200+ more on the Our Changing Climate YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@OurChangingClimate In this Our Changing Climate climate change video essay, I look at the future of transportation. Specifically, I uncover why we need a world without cars. Instead, we need a future of dense interconnected public transit that is anti-racist, anti-ableist, and anti-capitalist. A transportation system that prioritizes people through pedestrian, bike, and public transit-centered design.

    Is the Iran War Just the Beginning?

Specifically, I look at how American imperialism (and even more specifically, oil imperialism) and fossil fascism are driving the United States war machine into dangerous territory. But of course, Iran and its control of the Strait of Hormuz mean that a war with Iran has global ramifications--for oil, for helium, for fertilizer, and so much more.

Specifically, I dive into why consumerism is not actually the real cause of exploitation and the climate crisis, but instead a symptom of capitalism. Capitalist overproduction drives companies and corporations to create false needs and desires, which leads to overconsumption. We need to shift our attention away from consumerism and overconsumption and towards overproduction.

From zero-carbon, accessible, and free public transit, to low-cost housing, all the way to a planned economy, an ecosocialist future would seek to bring better well-being to all people and the planet.

You can watch this one and 200+ more on the Our Changing Climate YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@OurChangingClimate Help me make more podcasts like this by supporting Our Changing Climate on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/OurChangingClimate Check out Half Earth Socialism here: https://www.half.earth/ In this Our Changing Climate climate change essay, I look at how and why socialism, specifically ecosocialism, is crucial to mitigating climate change and building a just and equitable world. Specifically, I look at how capitalism can not exist in harmony with the natural world by investigating the concept of "metabolic rift." I then unpack what exactly ecosocialism is through the examples of various authors and activists. Ultimately, a planned, rational, anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, and deeply democratic mode of production is the only path forward for true harmony with the natural world. That economic formulation is ecosocialism.
